Cult Carnage by RustyMonky

[raw]
made by RustyMonky for Ludum Dare 45 (JAM)

A bullet hell where you start with nothing but your fists.

Disguised in cultist robes, you tried to slip away... But they found you. Intent on sacrificing you to their dark lord, they'll send everything they have at you. Their mistake.

Great use of the theme. I would have liked to see the enemies get more difficult over time because I'm pretty sure I could have played this forever! :)

I got stuck in the side of the map ! :D
Anyway, good music/sounds. Nice graphic.
Overall a very good entry!

Simple but really satisfing.
Quick side note for the developer: it looks like you move faster in diagonal

I tried a run without shoting at enemies and i thik that it is too easy. The graphics are good anyway.

Fun game, more enemies or minibosses that spawn randomly would be a nice addition to keep things fresh in an endless game. I enjoy this style of bullet-hell since it's actually possible to avoid getting hit at all if you have the skill to bob and weave the bullets.

Hey! This game is fun! Well done! :D

I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't any enemy beyond the :eye: eyes, I was hoping for a bit more of a challenge :crossed_swords: ...

Good job, though :)

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone.

@Eymrich, that's a shame -- hasn't happened to me, but I'll try to reproduce. Thanks for playing.

@benjo-games yeah, that was something I chose not to fix during LD crunch time, but it's definitely on the docket for post-LD patches.

@quin Sorry to hear that -- I've heard that happening for a very small amount of folks, and to be honest, I'm not sure why that is happening. I'll be adding a windows and mac build soon to let people who run into that issue still play.

@ludumanthony and @steffo -- yeah, I had more enemies planned, such as a kamikaze charging bat, but couldn't get that in with the time I had. Also, that's a damn nice score, LudumAnthony! Well done!

Gauntlet vibes. Solid gameplay and good art design.
